Kaizen hack #3.

How to stop meetings running away with you.

Do your meetings run longer than you need (or want) them to?

Why not try... Making an effort to reduce meeting times by 10% every month? So, if a normal meeting is, say, an hour long, knock it down to 54 minutes. Then try reducing it again the following month. Although humans naturally want to communicate, there is often wasted efficiency during long meetings. Cut them shorter; after a while you probably won’t even notice the difference.
